The expanding interdependencies of the world's diverse and divided
populations have created a world society. To rule these fractious
peoples, the democracies advance solutions to three imperatives of
governance-Order, Welfare, and Legitimacy (OWL). For Order, the
democracies institutionalized the global state; for Welfare, a
global market system; and for Legitimacy, popular rule, resting on
the moral principles of the freedom and equality of all humans. The
book develops globalization as the emergence of a global society;
presents a theory of governance predicable of all human societies,
revolving around competing OWL imperatives; and identifies
fundamental flaws in the democratic solutions to global governance.
To ensure that the democratic promise survives and thrives, the
volume calls for fundamental reforms of the democratic project as
prerequisites to deter and defeat formidable anti-democratic
adversaries: authoritarian states, religiously informed regimes
opposed to open societies; nihilistic social movements; self-styled
terrorists, and vast transnational criminal networks. Either the
democracies hang together or they hang separately.
